Sobre este título
Resumo da Crítica
‘Nostalgia for a grittier New York City suffuses this father-son odyssey, set in the year leading up to John Lennon’s murder . . . Funny and keenly observed.’
‘Dark and humourous . . . Thoroughly enjoyable.’
About fathers and sons, the perniciousness of fame and the challenge of second acts . . . Barbash recreates an inviting world. And he observes clearly the human tendency to turn people into idols, only to topple them.’
‘Excellent . . . At its heart, this is a story about family bonds and a pivotal time in New York.’
‘Arresting . . . Barbash has vividly captured the end times feeling of this period in America and has populated his sad and funny tale with a highly engaging mix of real people and fictional characters . . . Barbash has sprinkled The Dakota Winters with Beatle dust. Lennon is alive in its pages.’
‘You can practically hear Lennon’s signature cackle, feel the tickle of his ponytailed hair, smell the salt air.’
‘A beautiful, evocative novel of family devotion, celebrity, downfall and survival, framed by the political and cultural upheavals of America on the cusp of a new decade. Irresistibly tender.’
‘Punctuated by clever dialogue and crisp social critiques, Barbash’s incisive, funny and poignant portrait of talented people and a city in flux illuminates the risks of celebrity and the struggle to become one’s true self.’
‘Seamlessly mingling historical figures with invented ones, Tom Barbash conjures a gritty, populous, affectionate portrait of 1979 New York City: the site of his subtly captivating paean to filial love.’ (Jennifer Egan, author of Manhattan Beach)
‘Deft, funny, touching and sharply observed, a marvel of tone, and a skillful evocation of a dark passage in the history of New York City, when all the fearful ironies of the world we live in now first came stalking into view.’ (Michael Chabon, author of Moonglow)
‘This is a crazily charming novel . . . I wanted to begin a new life in these pages, with these characters. I wanted to trade worlds with them. This is a wise and seductive story that feels truer than true, as only the very finest fiction does.’ (Walter Kirn, author of Up in the Air)
‘A thought-provoking time capsule . . . if you were a fan of TV’s Mad Men, you might very well love this novel as much as I did.’
(Wally Lamb, author of She’s Come Undone)
